I know I only ever come on here to whine, but I really need a good whine. I can't talk about it to anyone in person because I feel like if I talk about it, it becomes more real.

Against my will, I am experiencing some of the most intense jealousy of my life. I have met possible the most perfect guy on the face of the planet and my suitmate is

"What if the only reason this boy is flirting with my suitmate and not me right now is that I haven't gotten my act together and made myself beautiful?"

How can such a smart person say such stupid crap? Carrie, judging yourself through the eyes of others is a lose-lose prospect, and always will be. In my experience, whether or not people like you is based a lot more on how you carry yourself, your default facial expression, and your overall attitude and openness towards others than how thin you are. How would I, a blind guy, know that? Because I used to be shy, reserved, and resistent to contact from others. When I was like that, the favor was returned by almost everyone I met. When I made an effort to change and socialize more, many people returned the interest. Sure, it wasn't always the ones I wanted the interest from, but them's the breaks, kid.

Boy.. you "met him less than a week ago" and now you're wondering if "this is the guy I was supposed to meet and fall in love with"? LOL. Really?

I'm not making light of your feelings, because we all have these moments, but be realistic here. I couldn't tell you all the times I met the love of my life. The one I was "meant to be with". It happens. And eventually.. it goes away. Stop beating yourself up over a current obsession.

The one you are supposed to be with will be there when you really NEED him. Not when you WANT him.
